well its been a long time since I have done a GB, but I have been wanting to finish my Pearl Harbor Japanese Attack force for a while. So why not? I will join in with a Airfix 1/72 Val and a Hasegawa 1/72 Zero. The start date works good so I ca finish the kit I am working on!

I'd be in if you are allowing crossovers.  I have a A6M2 Zero I'll be doing in Pearl Harbor markings for the Japanese GB that's going on.

I'm interested again Joe, but not too sure if I can commit just yet. In fact, I've already bought a kit in anticipation of this GB.

Cheers

Tony

I'm just taking it one GB at a time.

I'm in.  Perhaps this will be the year I actually finish something for this build.

I understand completely. It is such a special date in American history and deserves such commemoration.

eagle, stick, thought about this long and hard.  i would love every one of my group build proposals to be the next hugely successful group build.  sometimes for reasons as you state, they just dont achieve flight.  i can appreciate the full slate you have, i have been kinda following some of the proposals and builds myself.  mine may be poor timing as far as the number that are out there.  i do really appreciate your interest as that is one of the main goals for me each year.  to gather interest and provoke thought to remember the attack.  if this one flies or dies so be it.  it would not be the first time i had a group build idea that i turned out to be the group.  

however for me it is important to have that end date.  it is more to remember the reason for the build.  i will keep this alive and see where it goes.

Seeing how you seem to run this Pearl Harbor themed GB every year, why not just make it a long term running GB with no end date? Personally I would love to join this, but like Eagle, my plate is full for pretty much the rest of this year.

eagle although i will be posting the particulars soon the main idea is anything in hawaii dec 7 1941.  all military and civillian, all subjects, everything.  i also include all ships of the japanese first combined fleet and the uss enterprise.  the big part is whatever you choose has to be from that day in hawaii.

Hey Joe,

You know, I'm involved in 12 GB's now, but this one really popped out to me.  What subjects are you going to have in the GB?  Just might have to do this GB.
